I have seen a lot of people having this issue within the last month or two. Everything worked fine before wifi/wired didn't matter. I have a wifi connection and have never had this issue prior to the second to last update (i think.) I even moved and got gigabit internet so I knew bandwidth wouldn't be an issue. I have 1000 mbps down and 35 mbps up. No trouble streaming 4k videos on my TV from Amazon prime and playing games online at the same time. It seems to me that there was something EA changed and now people are having issues. If they can't see that and get the information to the devs to fix it, we will all keep encountering the problems. Hope they fix it soon.
Same problem here, cannot connect, wired, high speed internet, no issues with any other games.

Figured I'd bump this and say the problem is persisting for me. I live in an apartment with 3 other guys, and we can all squad up in fortnite without a single issue. Usually when I get this error I load up fortnite and it works without a flaw, so it's hard for me to believe it's on my end. Also my roommate is able to freely connect to battlefield 1, but I for some reason cannot. I will literally sit there trying to connect for 30-40 minutes, my roommate will go watch this and just jump into a game. We're both using ethernet cables, and it doesn't matter who tries to get on first or whatever. Recently bought this game as I was told it was fun, but it has only been a headache. Would love some kind of solution to this as it has been a few days since I could play which is a little annoying.
PS4 works fine for every other game btw, it's just EA related games. Would really like to play this game more, hopefully there may be a solution by now for PS4.

Same Problem here with BFV, it worked flawlessly since launch then one day I get the error. Nothing would fix it then I formatted my PC and re installed it again, happy days it worked for a week then the good old server error returned. 50mb connection and no problem with any other game, even APEX works fine, just BF V having the problem.

This worked for some Apex Legends players can you check to see if it works for you in BF1?

I've actually got it working. My motherboard has a killer nic built in. I was just running it off the windows 10 drivers, I've installed the drivers off of the killer network site and the app that allows you to set priorities, set BF V to number 1 priority and that seems to have solved it. Odd it started after playing over 80hrs without a problem though. Windows update? Or BF patch issue?

That's incredible! We have some players in the Apex Legends boards experiencing some network timeouts as well. Would you be able to drop into this post for me and relay steps on how to do that? I'm curious if that can help alleviate some of the painful timeouts that have been happening for them. We would really appreciate it.https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/server-timeout/td-p/7419717/highlight/true/page/6
